thanks for being back with us, both of you. let's start with the debt limit, we're talking about the debt limit, again. do republicans believe this is their ace in the hole? >> i sure hope they don't. i think the president has the stronger hand on this. number one, he won the election. we're all discussing that. he has the stronger hand in general. the other thing is that everybody remembers what we went through two summers ago. the summer of 2011 when the nation went through default. people felt that the president handled the situation badly, but they felt the republican congress was much worse in that particular negotiation. i don't think the republicans in trying to reestablish their brand want to get back into that fight and look like they want to have the ability to hold up the debt ceiling and then potentially bring the nation back to the edge of default, again. >> i want to play a snippet here of what majority leader harry reid said this week said about the fiscal. >> we would be somewhat foolish to work out something on

thanks for speaking with us. just to get some details we just got handed to us from kelly o'donnell, that is that in the latest deal in terms of the details, the taxes that are being discussed, regardless of the rate for a moment, they would be permanent and would not have a sunset provision. again, the progress is that they have come up with some understanding of an income tax threshold according to kelly o'donnell, and estate taxes as well. they've come up with some sort of agreement there. what is your thought about just these details that we're all learning right now? >> well, i am hopeful. i'm hopeful because we are seeing signs of compromise. the democrats have offered one compromise. on the issue of threshold for tax cuts. a higher threshold i think is a good compromise. it makes sense. and it helps us avoid going off this cliff. at the end of the day i am hopeful when both parties are willing to compromise. you cannot negotiation with a skid mark. up to now we have been in a position where we've been nego

i think the white house is using that as their lerchlg. i think also, though, when you hear the politicians are saying that the president iseering to go over the cliff, some of that is posturing to maybe put some of the blame back on him. this is something that if the economy starts to suffer on this, people are going to look to blaming each other. i think that it's likely, though, that there will be plenty of blame to go around. >> all right. we are starting to hear some republicans say that they would vote for a tax hike. we've heard this for a while now, but i want to take a eleven to what republican senator johnny isaacson of georgia had to say. >> i felt like the house should have gone ahead and passed speaker boehner's bill because it addressed the subject, and we would still be in negotiations, and the president's statement is right. no one wants taxes to go up on the middle class. i don't want them to go up on anybody, but i'm not in the majority in the united states senate. >> senator isakkson saying that he wishes that plan b had
